Lord Salisbury appears to get of the
track when he likens the Irish disturb
ances to the riots In Trafalgar Square.
There is certainly some political ques-
ton to the Irish disturbances, but for the
recent London " demonstrations it has
been shown that there were meetings of
all the worst criminals and blackguards
of London, who were ready and anxious
to give rude and free translation of
sentiments of socialist character into
practice. This they were prepared to 10

POLITICS FOR 1888.

The incoming month viii close the
year with prologue to the great politi-
cal drama OF 1888.
Before the curtain rises on the Fiftieth
Congress we can see the outline and plot
OF the play unless the great actors blum
der In their parts and fail. The scene is
sc, and the expectant audience are in
tent to behold what they expect to be
pageant OF the triumph Of the right over
wrong.
The Democratic party never could have
beaten thsir enemies but for the true
principles It championed The struggle
lasted for twenty years, DUNG which
period the Republicans entrenched in
power with all the offices and all the per-
quisltes with all the prestige of war and
all the promises of plumber, organized
and maintained defense which was so
complete that the position would have
been proof against our assault but for
the innate badness Of the party.
Against it's corruption and its abroga-
ton Of free government the Democracy
made that long fight and won.
1t has been recognized that the party
of the people has put honest and compe-
tent men in charge Of the government.
The administration Is sound and pre-
sents a record that defes attack. The
question then is, will the Democratic
majority in the House of Representatives
appreciate the situation and declare in its
measures policy that will command the
confidence Of the people
The Republican Senate may fail to CO.
operate in measures that the House en-
acts, but II those measures are up to the
requirement, and the purpose appears
plain to carry out the promises Of the
Democratic party, then the credit of the
attempt will belong to the Democrats,
and the odium Of any failure to the Re
pubicans.
We do not suppose that any great per
sonality like that OF Carlisle or Morrison
or Randall or Cleveland himself need
put the impress OF one man on any line
OF policy. The thing evident before the
House of Representatives is to draw a
plan Of tax reduction and carry it out so
far as a fair agreement between the diff
ferent interests Of the country will allow.
If this is done the victory Of the Dem
ocratic party next year is assured.
II there is any lodging or any disa-
greement between factions led respect
lively by certain leaders, then politics in
the presidential year will be shaped by
the chances OF personal factions instead
OF by the progressive action Of sound
principles.
